I like the ESV the most.

King James contains language that is too antiquated at this point and if you hadn’t been brought up with it, it’s just way too confusing.

I have a friend who teaches Greek and he says the ESV is excellent.

Was reared on KJV. Wore out several Dixon versions.

In China ran across folks who insisted that teaching the Chinese KJV English made sense.

I thought they were absolutely looney toons. Still do.
